Social media has been buzzing this week with food fanatics tweeting, blogging, reviewing and posting about new book on the shelves, ‘The Five O’Clock Apron’, written by Guardian columnist, chef and all round super-mum Claire Thomson.

Interstate, Monster and Lamborghini teamed up to deliver a high performance audio extravaganza within the Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, two different companies, singing two different soundtracks coming together in perfect harmony.

Congratulations to Jamie Oliver for securing the festive top spot in the book charts with his latest book ‘Jamie’s 15-Minute Meals’, designed by Interstate. It’s Jamie’s third year in a row at Christmas number one, and ’15-Minute Meals’ sold a whopping 117,911 copies in the week to 15 December and over 586,355 since it’s release at the end of September.

Really excited to see Jamie’s 15-Minute Meals, a book designed here at Interstate, to be released in not only Great Britain, but also Germany, Greece, France, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Finland, Denmark, Netherlands, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand in just 5 weeks since it’s release. Overwhelmed!! (Photo from from Jamie Oliver’s Instagram)

He is also […]

A day before the torch arrived in my part of the world, we went to the local BMW dealership to hold the object itself. Gloves donned, children briefed that if dropped there’d never be any more pocket money.

At the end of last year, some of us were lucky enough to have been invited out to deepest Essex by Jamie Oliver and his team to help kick-off the creation of his new book, ‘Jamie’s 15-Minute Meals’. We had a fantastic few days sampling some of the dishes cooked by Jamie whilst brainstorming, sketching […]

This weekend I was lucky enough to have a look around the New Designers Show held at the Business Design Centre in Islington, where graduate designers are given a national platform to show off their portfolios, network and share ideas with designers from other disciplines.

Just round the corner from us at Interstate, client Jamie Oliver is to open a huge new flagship cookery school and kitchen shop ‘Recipease’. The two-storey shop will launch this summer, a move expected to trigger a transformation of Notting Hill Gate.
